About me
Hi! I'm Megan Singleton and I've been galavanting around the world travel writing for 15 years and blogging for 8.
It's been a fantastic ride (as you can probably guess). I have over 600 posts here where you'll find reviews, tips, itinerary ideas, recommendations for places to stay and things to do and all sorts of tidbits from my travels.
I try to make this blog practical, full of great advice and inspiring ideas. Feel free to comment or join me on Twitter or Facebook if you have any questions about where I've been.
I'm also thrilled to have received the US Travel Association Travel Writers Award in 2009 and 2011 and an on the NZ Herald list of Top 50 Tweeters to follow.
So, in case you were wondering, this is how it all began…
At the age of 17 I waved goodbye to my family in the tiny town of Hastings on the East Coast of New Zealand and set off to see the world as an exchange student. Well to see the US, to be precise. Rockville, Maryland to be exact. Little did I know that this 1 year abroad would bite me and leave a travel bug for the rest of my days.
Scroll down a couple of years and I embarked on a 5-year stint in London aged 19. Originally intending to "seek my fortune and be a nanny" I sadly didn't achieve either. I was fired from my nanny job after 3 weeks (I couldn't keep up with the cushion plumping and shag pile vacuuming) so went temping in London on the big bucks. £4.75 per hour. It was enough to pay a modest rent and use the rest to fritter on cheap flights to Europe where accommodation may or may not be pre-arranged.
But I only decided to take writing seriously in 1999 when I studied for a Diploma of Freelance Journalism at the NZIBS and then "fell" into travel writing. My first travel story was published in Next Magazine in 2000 about visiting the (hilariously weird) Tate Modern in London.
Ahh, but blogging, you ask. Why blog?
Well, in 2006 I was hired by a large travel agency in New Zealand as their full time blogger. For 3 years I blogged twice a day, 5 days a week and then they ditched it. But don't cry! I launched this lofty travel blog, Travel Blogger at Large in 2009.
I also still freelance for the NZ Herald (I have a weekly travel column), Herald on Sunday, NineMSN, USA Today and several supplements and magazines. You'll hear me on Newstalk ZB every Sunday morning and I've also forayed into the world of TV and speak at events about travel writing and blogging.
My Blog Training Workshops
So after 8 years of travel blogging, and learning the tricks as I go, I've started Blogger Me. It's a 2-hour blog training workshop to help newbie bloggers get started by teaching them everything I wish I knew before I started mine(!) and also for business owners who realise they need to have a blog but don't know where to begin. More details are here>>>
But because there are lots of business websites out there also wondering how to get on the blogging/content marketing/social media bandwagon, I've now started Content Marketing for Business, a 2-hour workshop to get you started.
My proudest achievement?
I co-founded Random Acts of Kindness Day in New Zealand on September 1st 2005 and I love that RAK Day is now firmly established on New Zealand's national calendar.
Now what?
If you've read this far, congratulations! You deserve a wine. And if you want to know where to go next, type a destination into the search bar above or begin on these blogs – my personal faves!
Not for the ticklish: Foot torture at the fish foot spa in KL >>>
For tips on where to drink in LA: Five cool rooftop bars in Santa Monica >>>
The belching masseuse: My worst massage experience ever >>>
And I'd love you to come and join me on Facebook and Twitter, or subscribe to my newsletters to keep up to date when new blogs are posted or I see a special deal I think you'd want to hear about.
If you'd like to get in touch to discuss a famil or a speaking engagement, please shoot me an email to megan @ bloggeratlarge.com
Happy reading,

Well, it's Noctowl. It isn't that great, but hey, it's an owl. That's cool, right? Anyway, its main assets are its HP and Special Defense, and that sets it apart from a lot of other UUs, who are sorely lacking in the Defense department. If you're looking for a UU that can actually take some hits, try Noctowl, but don't use it in OU play and expect it to do much.
Probably Noctowl's best moveset. Hypnosis is to put them to Sleep, obviously, which is always a good thing. Psychic is one of its better attacking moves and is good for Weezing and Breloom, both of whom you can switch into fairly safely. Whirlwind because Noctowl has the HP to pseudo-haze. Reflect helps shore up Noctowl's inferior Defense stat, and provides walling for the whole team.
Choice Band Noctowl. Return or Double-Edge is a power vs. recoil argument. It can't do much to Skarmory no matter what he has, so just tail in when big bad metal birdie comes in. Pair it with Magneton and it might not completely suck. Hidden Power Ground or Hidden Power Fighting is for Tyranitar, Steelix, and compadres.
Special Attacking Noctowl set. I'd recommend Hypnosis, but that's just me. Not too bad, better than Choice Band Noctowl, as its Special Attack is actually pretty good.
Other Options
Noctowl doesn't have many options outside of the sets listed. You could use Rest if you want to taunt your opponent.
For the Choice Band and Special Attacking sets, jack up either Attack or Special Attack to max, then do the same to its Speed and give it a Jolly or Timid nature, depending on which set you are using. For the main set, you're going to want to put quite a bit into HP and Special Defense, then the rest in Defense and Special Attack. Its decent Special Defense and HP is one of the reasons it can actually survive for quite a while.
Checks and Counters
Anything with a STAB Rock move will easily KO Noctowl. Jolteon, Zapdos, Raikou etc. will all scare it away, as will Lapras, Articuno and other Ice types. Just don't keep it in vs. STAB Electric and Ice moves and you should be okay.

It really ticks me off to see employees of a business in Maitland stand out on the street smoking and then they throw their cigarettes into the median and street. Not only is it killing them and a potential fire hazard, but it is littering and disrespectful.
I would like to give a big shout out to all of the drivers who failed to yield the right of way to me at the cross walk of Lake Mary Blvd. and Markham Woods. I waited patiently for the cross walk light to turn in my favor and so that I could cross the intersection, and not a single car (at least 8 in all) making the right hand turn yielded to allow me to cross. Hope the few seconds that this saved you made your day. Thanks again.
I'm ticked off that I forgot and left my expensive water thermos at work and more ticked off that someone either took it or threw it away. I know you feel guilty since you tore down the posters I put up. Unbelievable that it would disappear but a twenty-five cent ramen noodle soup is still there after four months. Really? It's a used bottle.
I'm ticked off at people who don't know how to identify fresh foods by label.
I'm ticked off because coupons now require you to buy two items to save 50 cents.
The flip side
I want to thank the many young people who hold the door open for my husband, and/or me, coming or going at the post office and grocery stores. It always lifts my spirit.

Friday, April 25, 2014
The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — Michelle Obama urged Latino activists on Tuesday to help sign people up for her husband's health care overhaul, especially the millions of younger, healthier people the system will need to offset the cost of caring for older, sicker consumers.
First lady Michelle Obama greets customers at Sterling Farms Grocery Store in Marrero, La., Tuesday, July 23, 2013. The store was opened last year by actor Wendell Pierce as part of the "Alliance For A Healthier Generation." Earlier she spoke about childhood obesity at the annual meeting of the National Council of La Raza. (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert)
First lady Michelle Obama and National Council of La Raza President Janet Murguia wave as she arrives onstage to speak about childhood obesity, Tuesday, July 23, 2013, at the NCLR annual meeting New Orleans. The conference and a related "Family Expo" were expected to draw an estimated 25,000 participants. (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert)
The first lady said that, starting July 31, consumers can create an account at www.healthcare.gov , or www.cuidadodesalud.gov , its Spanish-language equivalent, so they can get ready to sign up for health insurance in the fall, starting on Oct. 1.
"Simply passing the Affordable Care Act was not the goal," Mrs. Obama said at the annual conference of the National Council of La Raza, a Latino advocacy group. "The goal is to get folks to sign up for the insurance so they have the care they need to stay healthy."
She emphasized "the need to reach out to our young people" since their participation is key to the law's success.
The Obama administration is looking for about 7 million people to sign up for health insurance through marketplaces that are supposed to become available online starting Oct. 1. More than 2.6 million younger enrollees are needed to keep costs down for the overall pool, the White House has said.
Nearly one-third of these young people live in California, Texas and Florida.
"So we need to send them to those websites which have all the information they need about health reform," Mrs. Obama said.
In the remarks, the first lady tied the push to get the uninsured to sign up for health care to her campaign against childhood obesity, which she said is seriously affecting the health of Latino children. She called the epidemic a policy, public health, family and community issue, and urged families to make the right diet and exercise choices for children who don't know enough to make the smart decisions on their own.
"We know better. And that is one of the greatest gifts we can pass on to our children. This is a gift," she said.
The first lady also mentioned immigration policy, saying President Barack Obama is working and fighting "every step of the way" on what is a priority issue for the president and for the group. The Senate has passed an immigration bill, but prospects in the House are less clear.
"But do not give up, because I promise you that my husband won't give up until a good bill gets on his desk," she said.
Benjamin Hernandez, a Houston resident who works for the city's Department of Health and Human Services, said he was thrilled that the first lady encouraged Latinos to sign up for health insurance.
"We have a lot of challenges in terms of obesity and chronic disease, so the more we get people on these programs, the more we get them on the health insurance exchanges, the better it is for the entire population," he said.
Mrs. Obama's remarks are part of a determined effort by the administration to inform the public about the health care law and its benefits as Oct. 1 nears. On Monday, Obama dropped in on a private White House meeting with celebrities including singer Jennifer Hudson and actors Amy Poehler and Kal Penn. The White House said the artists expressed interest in helping spread the word about the health insurance marketplaces opening Oct. 1.
After the conference visit, Mrs. Obama toured Sterling Farms, a suburban New Orleans grocery store opened by actor Wendell Pierce. It's intended as a way to provide better food access and jobs for residents.
Pierce, a New Orleans native, has been leading an effort to open grocery stores in underserved neighborhoods impacted by Hurricane Katrina.
Mrs. Obama shook hands with shoppers and told several children there to be sure to eat their vegetables.
Before her arrival, a New Orleans police officer on a motorcycle was struck while he was in the procession of Mrs. Obama's motorcade, said Garry Flot, a police spokesman. "The officer was taken to a hospital and his injuries are not life threatening," said Flot, who did not release the officer's name.
The accident remains under investigation.

Planned Giving for Your Future and Ours

You may designate the League as a direct beneficiary to receive all or a portion of the residual of your estate, or just simply to be the contingent beneficiary in the case that your named family or friends do not survive you. Click here to request a free brochure on giving through your will.
The following language can be used to provide for the League in your will:
"I hereby give and bequeath ______ to the Izaak Walton League of America (IWLA), a nonprofit membership organization incorporated by the laws of the State of Illinois, having as its principal address 707 Conservation Lane, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878-2983, for the IWL Trust."
Gifts of Stock

Click here to request a free brochure on giving through your life insurance.

ADA News
Dr. Michael Stablein, CDS president, dies
Dr. Michael J. Stablein, the 2010 president of the Chicago Dental Society, died Nov. 14 in Mexico City of an apparent heart attack. He was 61 years old.
The news officially reached CDS membership late Nov. 14 during the society's annual Installation of Officers event. The occasion usually involves the outgoing president making his valedictory remarks, followed by the installation of a new president. Instead, it was Dr. David J. Fulton Jr., CDS vice president, who said farewell for Dr. Stablein.
"It's one of the hardest things I've ever done," said Dr. Fulton. "He was just a warm soul and we're all heartbroken."
Dr. Stablein was in Mexico City for the Asociacion Dental Del Distrito Federal's annual meeting.
A 1978 graduate of the University of Illinois Chicago College of Dentistry, Dr. Stablein was certified in periodontics and earned a doctorate in pathology from UIC. From 1978-87, he taught in both the periodontics and pathology departments at UIC.
"He was a great guy," said Dr. Jack Lieberman, a longtime friend who taught Dr. Stablein at UIC. "He had so much more to contribute and was taken too early. He was extraordinary and friendly to everyone."
Another former professor-turned-colleague, Dr. Richard Perry, echoed those sentiments.
"He was one of those all-around great people," said Dr. Perry, who chairs the CDS Access to Care Committee. "His passion was access and he did a lot to re-establish health clinics in Cook County. It's a sad thing."
For years, Dr. Stablein and Dr. Lieberman, a general dentist, met for weekly lunches, first on Fridays and later on Mondays. They traded off between Chinese and Italian, and any topic was fair game.
"We solved the problems of the world at those lunches," said Dr. Lieberman.
Before rising to CDS president, Dr. Stablein held all offices in the West Side Branch of CDS, culminating in the presidency from 1992-1993, and a three-year term as branch director, 1997-1999. He also served on the CDS Access to Care, Mediation and Membership committees and was the general chair of the 139th Midwinter Meeting in 2004.
"Precious few individuals have more positively impacted organized dentistry in Illinois and the CDS than has Dr. Mike Stablein," said Dr. Joseph F. Hagenbruch, ADA 8th District Trustee. "Certainly, I know of no one else who has exemplified any deeper dedication, demonstrated such remarkable patience, set a finer example or exhibited a higher level of issue-consciousness and understanding. I became acquainted with Dr. Stablein very early in my organized dental experience. Over the years, I have come to know him well, appreciate his steadfast commitment to the profession, be mindful of his countless talents and treasure his sagacious counsel, as well as unreservedly tap into his wealth of knowledge."
Dr. Stablein also was known for his dedication to mentoring young dentists, which he traced back to his years in academia. One of his biggest accomplishments was organizing a government affairs committee at CDS so that the association could become more politically involved in Cook County.
In addition to his involvement in organized dentistry, Dr. Stablein published several journal articles and co-authored a chapter in The Histology of the Oral Mucosa.
Dr. Stablein is survived by his wife, Dr. M. Caroline Scholtz, a pediatric dentist; and four children, Michael, Gabriela, Andrew and Amelia.
A memorial service will be held Nov. 20 at St. Patrick Catholic Church, 991 S. Waukegan Road, Lake Forest, IL 60045.
Donations may be sent to the Michael Stablein Memorial Fund, 5530 West Montrose Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60641.

John & Michele in the Morning
After 15 years, we're down to the last week. July 12, 2013 will be the last show for John & Michele in the Morning. There's nothing scandalous to report...sorry!
John will continue his reign as Springfield's morning show king, but he'll just be doing it with someone new.
Michele is moving on to a new phase of her career in the radio business. She'll still be in Springfield and still with Neuhoff Media, however instead of being on the air she's going to be focusing on all things digital. It's been a great 15 years, and John & Michele plan to spend this last week reminiscing with guests and playing some of the best moments of the past.
Michele would LOVE to hear from you this week. Write on the

Thoughts From A Trainer, Part Two
By Tim Brady
Editor's Note: This is the second installment in a three-part series. If you missed the March issue, you can view it online by clicking the In The Magazine tab at www.studentdriverplacement.com
We asked our veteran trucker to continue with what trainers really think when they're OTR with a new driver.
"Well, get it out of your head that because you can push a truck forward and keep it between the lines, you're a full-fledged truck driver.
That just means you're a steering wheel holder. If that's all you want to be, fine. But you're with the wrong trainer if you think that's good enough to make a career out of one of the hardest professions around.
It really ticks me off to have someone behind the wheel who won't listen. I guess that's the one thing most of us trainers would ask all our new drivers – please, just listen to us for a few minutes. Sit and listen at truckstops or truck shows when long-time drivers are talking to pick up pointers too.
And I also have to admit, I don't agree with trainers taking new drivers out – and they've got a whopping six months' of experience themselves. Come on. Not enough. If that's the company you're driving for, then you have to drive even more carefully. Get your two years in, and then find yourself a better carrier, one that values its drivers more than that kind of callousness.
Okay, what else will help a new driver do better? Watch over-correcting when you do something wrong. Never, ever jerk the wheel or slam on the brakes. Not only is either one hard on your truck, but it's hard on your own nerves. Look far enough ahead to anticipate what could happen. If you're rolling up to a stop sign, and you see a car on the side road that doesn't seem to be slowing, gear your truck down even more. It's better to crawl up to a stop than to go over the top of a car that roared on into the intersection.
Keep in mind that unless I'm a certified jerk, I'm lead driver, because I'm the trainer. I answer to Safety every day, as well as Dispatch. And I'm trying my best – to help you become your best."

Medical problems including heart defects, seizures, undescended testicle, and an inguinal hernia have also been reported in some affected individuals. Researchers have identified five regions of the X chromosome that are linked to FGS in affected families. The condition is called FGS1 when it is caused by a change (mutation) in a gene called MED12. FGS2 is caused by mutations in the FLNA gene. The genes responsible for FGS3, FGS4, and FGS5 remain unknown. FGS is inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern.[1]FG syndrome (FGS) is a genetic condition that affects many parts of the body and occurs almost exclusively in males.

Health insurance reform opponents, including Congresswoman Virginia Foxx of North Carolina, continue to spread myths about America's Affordable Health Choices Act's impact on seniors. The facts about health insurance reform disprove her comments, and independent organization decry efforts to scare Americans who want the reform embodied by America's Affordable Health Choices Act.
Myth: The Republican reform effort, unlike the Democrats proposal, 'is pro-life because it will not put seniors in a position of being put to death by their government.' - Congresswoman Virginia Foxx [7/28/09]
Fact: America's Affordable Health Choices Act extends Medicare coverage to cover the cost of patients voluntarily speaking with their doctors about their values and preferences regarding end-of-life care--empowering older Americans on this critical issue. These are deeply personal decisions that take thoughtful consideration, and it is only appropriate that doctors be compensated for their time.
- Advance planning consultations are not mandatory; this benefit is completely voluntary. The provision merely provides coverage under Medicare to have a conversation once every five years if - and only if - a patient wants to make his or her wishes known to a doctor. If desired, patients may have consultations more frequently if they are chronically ill or if their health status changes.
- There is no mandate in the bill to complete an advance care directive or living will. If a patient chooses to complete an advance directive or order for life sustaining treatment, these documents will help articulate a full range of treatment preferences, from full and aggressive treatment to limited, comfort care only. Patients that choose to have these documents and can customize them so that their wishes are appropriately reflected.
- There are no government-chosen professionals involved. The legislation simply allows Medicare to pay for a conversation between patients and their doctors.
That is why independent organizations and news outlets are criticizing opponents' scare tactics:
The Associated Press wrote, "Confusing claims and outright distortions have animated the national debate over changes in the health care system. Opponents of proposals by President Barack Obama and congressional Democrats falsely claim that government agents will force elderly people to discuss end-of-life wishes…. THE FACTS: The bill would require Medicare to pay for advance directive consultations with health care professionals. But it would not require anyone to use the benefit… Patients and their families would consult with health professionals, not government agents, if they used the proposed benefit. [8/02/09]
In an editorial, "Health care scare talk doesn't help the debate," the Greensboro News Record, in Congresswoman Foxx's home state, said of Foxx's comments: "Some of the rhetoric over health care is frightening, with the president's critics sounding alarms about costs, government takeovers, "socialized medicine," rationing and now even death… Discussions about this tremendously important issue need to be rational and well-informed. Foxx's comments didn't meet those criteria... A provision in a House bill authored by Democrats would require Medicare to pay for counseling on end-of-life issues, including living wills. No one would be forced to have such counseling, let alone to make any particular decisions. Nothing authorizes the government to put people to death.' [7/31/09]
Trusted senior groups such as the AARP are supporting insurance reform because "This measure would not only help people make the best decisions for themselves, but also better ensure that their wishes are followed… To suggest otherwise is a gross, and even cruel, distortion…" [7/24/09]

The Niagara has a plastic tray that you tip to create a flush.
It's a basic builder grade toilet are far as quality goes.
The footprint is fairly small, so if you have a wood floor, the old outline is likely to show.
The Toto Unifit adapter, as many will tell you, works well for moving the rough-in.
I sell toilets that use the Unifit day in and day out.
I stock about six of the 10" kits and two of the 14".
The toilets come standard with the 12" kit.
It's the best choice if you have a 10" or 14", everything else looks contrived.
Using these, allows the bowl to have a cleaner look and makes it easier to clean.
If you ask women which one they would rather clean, any Toto with a Unifit will be getting the two sponges up sign.
We sell and install thousands of toilets every year, toilets with the Unifit have been big sellers for us.
If your plumber hasn't see them before, or has a hard time reading, then have him give me a call.

"I'm really excited. I can't wait to get to Colorado and just have a chance to make some noise in the World Series," Norton said from Alexander City by phone Tuesday night.
"I'm ready to go. This is what I've always wanted to do – play in front of a big crowd, lot of people – and this is my opportunity so hopefully I can make the most of it," said Lee, referring to the crowds of 10,000 that often jam Grand Junction's Sam Suplizio Field.
Central Alabama was undefeated in four games in the ACCC conference tournament in Ozark. The Trojans clinched the championship on May 16 by rallying for nine runs in the final three innings to defeat Southern Union 13-5. Lee was 4-for-6 with five RBIs in the win.
"I hit a double in the first for two RBIs. In the seventh, eighth and ninth, we just got it going through the order, scoring a bunch of runs. Hitting's contagious," Lee said.
It certainly was for the Trojans against the Bison. The score was 4-all after six innings. In the seventh, CACC scored four times. The Trojans added two runs in the eighth and three in the ninth. Norton had a single and an RBI in each of the last three innings.
Norton and Lee awoke very early Wednesday morning, if they slept at all, then left Alexander City at 3 a.m. for Atlanta and a flight west. There will be time to get accustomed their new surroundings.
"We're going to get out there and have practice Thursday and Friday at a set time and place. We know that's set up for us," Lee said.
To date, Norton has pitched in 17 games, both as a starter and in relief, and is 7-3 on the season with one save. In 72 innings of work, his earned run average is 3.13 and he has 47 strikeouts.
Norton said the biggest difference in his pitching from last year to this season is better control of all his pitches, something he's worked to improve.
"The main thing is just throwing strikes and being around the zone. … That's one of the main things I've focused on. If you stay around the zone, they've got to swing the bat. A lot of times hitters get themselves out," Norton said. "I can throw all my pitches more consistently in any count than I could last year. Last year, if it was 3-2 I was probably throwing fast ball instead of throwing maybe an off-speed pitch or a changeup. Just the trust in all four of my pitches now, there's a big difference."
"It definitely helps having the confidence in every count to throw any pitch because you keep a hitter really off balance at that point," he added.
"He's been real consistent for us all year. He's really done well. He's pitched well," Lee said of Norton.
Lee's done well, too. His .397 batting average leads his team. His hits include 16 doubles, three triples and four home runs. Batting sixth, he's scored 29 runs and recorded 41 RBIs.
"JUCO baseball is a really good brand of baseball, I feel. A lot of good players come out of the league I play in. All year I played against good competition every day, grind it out, good times and bad, ups and downs. That's how the game is. I just stuck with it and now we're here," said Lee.
The Trojans meet Florida's Palm Beach State (38-19) in the national tournament's first game. It is scheduled for Saturday at 9 a.m. Mountain, 10 a.m. Central. Lee doesn't think the early start will present any problems for him or his teammates.
"When we were playing Saturday doubleheaders we'd start at 12 o'clock. That's not 9 o'clock but that's still early. We're used to getting up for class. It's just kind of our routine. … We'll be up and ready to play. Trust me – 10,000 people – we'll be ready," he said.

Oh, I'm sure you saw that photo. It was tearing up the internets this past week: the snapshot of Carrie Fisher, in Princess Leia metal bikini-wear, sunbathing with her identically clad stunt double while on set in Arizona for Return of the Jedi.
It really started spreading once Gizmodo posted it, and could be found on JWZ, Boingboing.net, Buzzfeed.com,and theforce.net. It was when the Daily Mail got a hold of the story, though, that it took a peculiar turn.
Catch that wrinkle? The "pictures have just been leaked onto the internet, more than 20 years since they were taken." That definitely makes the story even sexier, which, come on, this is a story that hardly needs it. As exciting as the idea of leaked photos is, it's not entirely accurate. In fact, we can offer you a "top secret" way to uncover this and even more "leaked photos."
Step 1. Get the 2004 Star Wars Trilogy DVD boxed set. Odds are, you own it. Throw in Disc 4, the Bonus Materials. Navigate to "Video Games and Still Galleries."
Step 2. Now, go to "Exclusive Production Photos."
Step 3. Almost there. "View Return of the Jedi photos.
Step 4. Okay. Now thumb forward about 30 or so images and, presto! "Leaked image!"
A wise blogger once wrote, "the Internet has a collective memory of a goldfish for stuff like this." Hard to argue that point, but we know Star Wars fans are more observant than that! Heck, we're willing to bet that some of you even remembered that a variation of this photo was made publicly available before the 2004 DVD release. In June of 2003, StarWars.com posted this snapshot. We're certain it's been burned into the minds of more than one fanboy.

This idea has been floating around for sometime now, but the release of Arturia's iMini for iPad really got me to realize – the iPad has quite a variety of classic synth recreation apps…
-Peter Vogel CMI and CMI Pro
Other recreations:
-Korg iElectribe & iElectribe Gorillaz Edition
What is it about the iPad that's attracting so many classic synth recreations? I've got it narrowed down to a few contributing features…
1. Touch – A touch screen allows users to interact directly with the synthesizer, not through a keyboard and a mouse, you can literally drag and drop cables in iMS-20, turn knobs and sliders, ect…
2. It's a second computer – Live setups can be complicated. Having a second computing device (especially on that's as advanced as the iPad) allows musicians to have an extra screen to use software that may have otherwise been crammed onto a laptop along with several other VSTs. This will get exponentially better as soon as the iConnectMIDI 2+ and 4+ arrive with AudioPass Through.
3. Capable of producing complete tracks – Audio copy & paste, Virtual MIDI, Audiobus bring all of these apps together.
4. Portability - This one's a given.
5. Anything else? What do you like about producing on iPads? Leave a comment below!

Throughout his term as president, Barack Obama has insisted his administration could not allow construction of the Keystone XL pipeline to carry Canadian oil to the U.S. unless the State Department signed off on it.
On Friday, the State Department revealed - at last - that it can find no reason to believe the pipeline would be detrimental to the environment.
Radical environmentalists hate the pipeline proposal - but they have not been able to come up with a reasonable objection to it, either.
Time's up, Mr. President. Your list of excuses for blocking the pipeline has been exhausted.
The pipeline should be built, of course. It will provide thousands of jobs and an inexpensive source of oil for the United States. Now, Obama has no choice but to say "yes" to that - or to reject the pipeline solely to placate the radicals.

A transmedia documentary by Gerald Holubowicz & Jean Nicholas Guillo - Produced by Happy Fannie
MONEYOCRACY analyses the major impact of the 2010 Citizens United vs. F.E.C ruling on the U.S democracy. The film focuses on the rise of Super PACs and their affiliated secret organizations – the 501c4s - and documents how these organizations influence the political debate and American voters during the 2012 presidential campaign and beyond through political advertising.
MONEYOCRACY takes the audience from Washington D.C to New York, NY, from Cleveland, OH to Chicago, IL at the Obama Election Night. Along the way, main actors of the campaign, including lobbyists, activists and lawyers reveal the true consequences of the Supreme Court's historic 2010 decision.
Six billions of dollars. The 2012 Presidential election will certainly be remembered as the first campaign ever to reach that tremendous amount of money. Campaigns and independent groups injected all the money they were able to raise until the very last moment to get their candidate elected. Political ads – mostly negative ones – have flooded the airwaves in every battleground states. Back in April 2011, Barack Obama launched his 2012 presidential campaign with these words: "We're doing this now, because the politics we believe in does not start with expensive TV Ads or extravaganzas…" This statement was a profound one, as it forecasted the state by which the already costly and elaborate U.S. elections would be run. He eventually ended up by using the same tactics as his Republican opponent.
With these words, the U.S. president directly referred to the Supreme Court's decision made on January 21, 2010 in the case, Citizens United vs. Federal Election Commission. We wanted to understand what are the legal & political implications of this decision? Is this the beginning of a new era when corporations will shape the political arena as their businesses? Why does the Super PACs want to influence American voters? Are they connected to the candidates, and if they are, what is at stake here? These questions are important in a healthy democracy where one voice should equal one vote.
Moneyocracy, The rise of the United Corporations of America
Written by Gerald Holubowicz & Jean Nicholas Guillo as Chewbahat Produced by Sandrine Girbal, Happy Fannie.
ROOM 501C4 is an immersing and educative experience crafted around an interactive documentary (i-doc).
In this i-doc, YOU – the "spectactor" – play a fictional character recruited by a secret organization who wants to support a candidate running for the Presidential election. Moving forward into the experience, you'll have to decide how to market a fictional presidential candidate called Bill O'Maney and how to finance his campaign.
This interactive experience allows the end-user to make a number of strategic campaign decisions for the candidate, Bill O'Maney. The outcome of the campaign depends entirely on where the campaign's money comes from (corporate money and super PAC, grassroot campaign donations, public option funding) and decisions you'd make.
This raises an essential question: Is it possible to win without big financial backers? The mission of the i-doc is to educate, inform and create an experience. This means educating people on the influence of non-party groups over the elections. Informing them on the financial processes at work during an election. And creating an (interactive) experience to make them think about the rising influence of these groups in the election results.

"The effects of the decision will be to undermine existing law, flood the airwaves with corporate and union advertisements, (...) In short, today's decision was a serious disservice to our country." Olympia J. Snowe
"Last week the Supreme Court reversed a century of law that I believe will open the floodgates for special interests to spend without limit in our elections. I don't think American elections should be bankrolled by America's most powerful interests, or worse, by foreign entities." Barack Obama, 2010

From filmmakers, Gerald Holubowicz and Jean Nicholas Guillo, comes MONEYOCRACY, the first transmedia documentary to expose the shocking truth behind the 2010 Citizens United v. FEC Supreme Court decision and its devastating consequences on the U.S democracy.
The 2012 Presidential election was certainly the most costly ever in the U.S history. More than $6 billions have been spent by the Campaigns and independent groups to get their candidate elected. But for what purpose?
You are free to use all the photos, videos and materials mentioned in this press site in articles, news items, blog posts, videos and other features about Moneyocracy, Gerald Holubowicz, Jean Nicholas Guillo and so forth in newspapers, magazines, TV, online-videos, blogs and other such media – both commercial and non-commercial.
(This list represents neither an endorsement from these organizations nor constitutes a partnership in anyways.)
The Act was crafted by former Federal Election Commission chairman Trevor Potter (appearing in the movie) in consultation with dozens of strategists, democracy reform leaders and constitutional attorneys from across the political spectrum.
The Act would transform how elections are financed, how lobbyists influence politics, and how political money is disclosed. It's a sweeping proposal that would reshape the rules of American politics, and restore ordinary Americans as the most important stakeholders instead of major donors. The Act enjoys support from progressives and conservatives alike.
Constitutional attorneys confirm that the provisions are constitutional. The Act is being championed by the Represent.Us campaign and supported by United Republic among others. Click here to support this campaign.

The War on Terrorism and Specialized Courts - Event Audio/Video
Chicago Lawyers Chapter and International & National Security Law Practice Group

The following audio and video were recorded on May 12, 2008.
The War on Terrorism and Specialized Courts 5-12-08
Running Time: 01:13:00
[ Full Audio]
The legal framework for our counterterrorism efforts has consisted of a mix of the law of armed conflict and criminal law. It also consisted of a varying mix of executive action and legislative authorization. This mix has been controversial. And it may be inadequate, because the efforts must have two objectives. The first is to prevent attacks, and the second is to prosecute terrorists in a manner that is both effective and just. Can these objectives be better achieved through comprehensive legislation and policy innovations, perhaps including the establishment of a specialized court with jurisdiction over (1) intelligence gathering, (2) preventive detention, (3) interrogation, and (4) trials? A distinguished panel will address the Constitutional, legal, and policy issues raised by such suggestions.
**There were audio problems during the recording of this event, which we were unable to fix in post-production. We apologize for the poor quality and for the inconvenience.**

Corporation Bylaws & LLC Operating Agreements
Must-have documents for any corporation or LLC.
State law requires all corporations to create a document outlining their organization and day-to-day operations. Called your corporate bylaws, it's one of your company's most important legal documents.
Among a number of other details, corporate bylaws generally contain:
- the structure of the organization
- the duties and responsibilities of a corporation's members
- details about the board of directors
- information about when and where directors' and shareholders' meetings will be held
- a list of committees
Much the same, limited liability companies (LLCs) in many states are required to create an LLC operating agreement; a document that provides a framework for their operation.
LLC operating agreements typically contain information about:
- members' percentages of ownership
- members' rights and responsibilities
- members' voting powers
- allocation of profits and losses
- management details
- the fiduciary duties of members and managers
Corporations and LLCs aren't required to file their bylaws or operating agreements with the Secretary of State. Still, you should have them in place as soon as you've incorporated or formed your LLC, because these documents are often requested by:
- lenders, when you're trying to obtain financing
- banks, when you're opening a business checking account
- potential business partners or investors
- attorneys and accountants
The Company Corporation can help.
No matter what state your business is headquartered in, The Company Corporation can provide you with an operating agreement that is specially tailored to your company. For the same fee, we can also help you with bylaws for your corporation in many states.
Provide us with basic information about your company's owners, management, and purpose, and we'll use that information to create a custom document for your company. Once we've completed your bylaws or operating agreement, we'll send it to you by email. You can then print it and keep it with your company records. Unfortunately, The Company Corporation cannot provide you with legal advice in the preparation of your bylaws or operating agreement and you should consult an attorney if you need legal advice.

Fukushima Response Strategy
Hamilton and Rhea Counties, Tennessee and Limestone County, Alabama
On March 15, 2013, TVA issued a final environmental assessment and finding of no signifcant impact for implementing its response strategy for recent Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requirements following the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami that struck the Fukushima Dai-ichi electrical power station in Japan. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission directed operators of nuclear power plants, including the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), to review their procedures, equipment, and facilities and to develop strategies to improve their ability to maintain or restore core cooling, containment, and spent fuel pool cooling capabilities in the event of a severe accident.
TVA has proposed a strategy for addressing these issues at its Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN), Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQN), and Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant (BFN). Components of the strategy include evaluating current procedures and facilities and undertaking the following physical actions:
- Replace certain transformers at SQN.
- Construct concrete equipment storage buildings at BFN, SQN, and WBN to house large emergency generators and other emergency equipment and supplies.
- Install as many as three 225-kVA diesel generators on the roofs of existing buildings at BFN, SQN, and WBN.
- Harden the condensate storage tanks and associated equipment at SQN and WBN by constructing a concrete or metal housing around the condensate storage tanks, constructing new tanks with a more robust design, or implementing other mitigating measures to ensure reactor pressure vessel cooling water is available.
- Conduct general construction-type activities, including soil-disturbing actions, for minor upgrades to existing systems.
- Modify the vent system at BFN and install filters in the vents.
- At BFN, provide a remote station for a pneumatic supply to allow manual operation of the vent system from a safe location and modify the effluent radiation monitor to ensure prolonged operation or install a new monitoring system with an uninterruptible power source.

The Pew Charitable Trusts is driven by the power of knowledge to solve today's most challenging problems. Pew applies a rigorous, analytical approach to improve public policy, inform the public and stimulate civic life.
Apr 11, 2011
The public has an overwhelmingly negative reaction to the budget negotiations that narrowly avoided a government shutdown. A weekend survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press and the Washington Post finds that "ridiculous" is the word used most frequently to describe the budget negotiations, followed by "disgusting," "frustrating," "messy," "disappointing" and "stupid."
Overall, 69% of respondents use negative terms to describe the budget talks, while just 3% use positive words; 16% use neutral words to characterize their impressions of the negotiations. Large majorities of independents (74%), Democrats (69%) and Republicans (65%) offer negative terms to describe the negotiations.
The full survey was conducted April 7-10 among 1,004 adults; people were asked their impressions of the budget talks in interviews conducted April 9-10, following the April 8 agreement that averted a government shutdown.

IBM Corp.'s DB2 Universal Database product is a large database server product commonly used for high end databases. For more information, visit the following URL.
Local exploitation of multiple file creation vulnerabilities in IBM Corp.'s DB2 Universal Database could allow attackers to elevate privileges to the superuser.
These vulnerabilities are due to insufficient checking being performed while handling files with elevated privileges. By setting certain combinations of environment variables, an attacker is able to create or append to arbitrary files on the system.
Exploitation allows local attackers to gain root privileges.
In at least one case, the attacker's umask will be honored when creating files. In this case, the attacker could create world-writable root-owned files anywhere on the system. By targeting specific system files, such as /etc/ld.so.preload or various cron data file locations, an attacker could execute arbitrary code with superuser privileges.
iDefense confirmed the existence of this vulnerability in version 9.1 Fix Pack 2 of IBM Corp.'s DB2 Universal Database installed on a Linux system. All prior versions, as well as builds for other UNIX-based operating systems, are suspected to be vulnerable.
Setting more strict permissions on the DB2 instance directory can help mitigate some of these vulnerabilities. Removing the setuid-bit from all programs included with DB2 can also help mitigate exposure. Note, these configuration changes have not been thoroughly tested and may cause adverse behavior.
IBM Corp. has addressed this vulnerability by releasing V9 Fix Pack 3 and version V8 FixPak 15 of its Universal Database product. More information can be found at the following URLs.
V8: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21256235

iSatori MX-LS7 Maximum Strength Lean System 7
Size/Count 120.0 ea
- Most powerful, cutting-edge ingredients
- Maximum strength lean system
- Eliminate unwanted body
Receiving Options
- Rapid Bio-Diffusion Delivery
- Maximum Thermogenic Intensity
New! High-Performance Fat Burner
iSatori, where scientific integrity and constant innovation never stand still, has taken their original clinically researched Lean System7 formula and amped up the intensity and thermogenic impact with the most powerful, cutting-edge ingredients known to science... to create MX-LS7, Maximum Strength Lean System 7 - The High-Performance Fat Burner.
MX-LS7, with its newly devoted Rapid Bio-Diffusion Delivery Technology, starts working from the very first dose to maximize thermogenisis and eliminate unwanted body fat via three important mechanisms: First, MX-LS7 supports healthy thyroid function, converting low-activity T4 to high-activity T3, leading to a significant increase in metabolic rate and body heat. Next, MX-LS7 stimulates the cellular messenger cAMP (cyclic AMP) to regulate metabolic processes and positively mediate the effects of insulin and stimulate lipolysis for the conversion of fatty acids into the only form the body can burn off - instead of being stored as excess fat. Finally, the powerful fat-burning effects of MX-LS7 are enhanced with a proprietary complex of well-researched ingredients to improve the brain ATP and increase blood flow and glucose to the brain, giving you laser-like focus and improved mental acuity for high-intensity, explosive workouts. MX-LS7. Nothing is stronger. Nothing works faster.
